Yings crew work quickly in loading on board supplies and making sure that the ship is ready to sail at a moments notice. As dusk is beginning to fall, a party of five men approach the Shadow Lark. At their head is a broad-shouldered man, a hard-bitten look to him and a crocodile skin worn around...

Menexes nods. "You mentioned something earlier, before we were interrupted," he says. "If you will, I'd like to talk more with you, your men and Rexun. Our hospitality is rough, I apologise, but perhaps something to eat and drink for you we can be finding." He utters a few words in Dwarven, and...

Ignatius has a feeling that he's heard somewhere that, whilst a symbol can be removed by a targeted dispel, the effects once triggered cannot (much like a healing spell but in reverse).

I reckon you could drop the Lair and Legendary powers easily enough to make a more simplistic and lower challenge creature, if you wanted (the rest of its abilities are pretty much a 1st ed. Androsphinx). I like it, the flavour text gives a guardian monster that makes sense. Guess the...

"Yes, yes," muses old Megan. The points a bony finger at Myfanwy. "You are of the Old Faith, are you not? Perhaps you can say the rites. It will serve her as well as anything the young monk can mumble."

Manachan suffers no ill effects, but the other three experience chronic pain as they move. It's not completely debilitating, but it will slow them down somewhat, and makes it hard to think straight. Now that Mhairi is closer to the murals she sees that the animal-headed creatures are in a...

The nearest place to warm up again is "Mad" Megan's cottage, and soon the group is huddled around the meagre fire, the old lady plying Gwyneira with blankets and broth. "Did you find the answers you were seeking?" she asks. "Did you see Angharad?"

Shortly, when the pary has regrouped elsewhere: "I hope I didn't mess that up," says Shem. "I mean, now these pirates know our ship and all." "I gave them the name of the Lark," says Ying. "How do you lot want to play this? Want to be there when the Red Talons come calling. Might, er, might be...

OOC: I have to say the rules concerning symbols are confusing at best. They are visible from 60 ft., but they also have a sod of a DC to detect them, so my guess is that unless triggered they are completely inert, and the DC is to realise they are more than just pretty pictures. Ditto with...

As Mhairi moves into the room the symbol on the floor bursts into radiant light, a sort of dim purple that can only just be seen. Everyone experiences intense wracking pain. It didn't register as magic before to Ignatius' sight. Now it does. OOC: Fortitude saves please from everyone (DC 20)

A few of the Copper Dwarves are injured, particularly the two who were first to hold the entrance against the incursion. Only one is badly wounded but Comoray's earlier channeling has stabilised him. They are a hardy folk and they politely decline the offer of any further healing, using a mix of...

Ignatius opens the door. Beyond is another room, empty apart from a further door leading off to the far right, and a symbol etched into middle of the floor. A wide passage leads away to the left, curving back to its left at the end. The walls of this passage are decorated with murals of giant...

Ignatius sees nothing magical in the room, which appears otherwise empty.

OOC: The doorways moved in and out of sight sideways, not vertically, and there was no sensation of going up or down.

Edmond pulls the lever. Somewhere far off a bell rings, then suddenly the whole room lurches. Where the archway through to the tiger-headed statues was becomes a blur of stone, before the room lurches again and a new doorway slides into place. This one leads into a small stone room with a door...

You're right - that's what happens if you post whilst tired! I'm back with PSP again so I'll post a labelled version. Edit: See below

Kraken stops in his tracks. He shoulders his falchion and looks, with some regret, down the corridor before returning to the original course. "Fair play," he says.
